[Jacob-list] I-D Powder

[Melody]

I've never used it, but there were quite a few on a goat list I used to belong to who swore by it.  If I can remember the name right, it was a guy named Ron (or Rod) Keener, a reputable livestock transporter, who was selling it at that time.  But I never tried it.
